[Intro]

E

[Verse]

N.C. (E)
A modern-day warrior

Mean mean stride,
N.C. (E)
Today's Tom Sawyer
N.C. (E)
Mean mean pride.

[Bridge]

E D/E A/E C/E

[Verse]

E
  Though his mind is not for rent,
D/E
  Don't put him down as arrogant.

  His reserve, a quiet defense,
C/E
  Riding out the day's events.

          The river

Em D/F# G A5 Em Cmaj7 B5 A5 G5 F#5

[Chorus]

    Em       D/F#          G     A5
And what you say about his company
   Em         Cmaj7   B5    A5 G5 F#5
Is what you say about society.
Em         D/F# G         A5
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Em          Cmaj7  B5        A5 G5 F#5
Catch the mystery, catch the drift.

  The world is, the world is,
A        G        B
Love and life are deep,

Maybe as his eyes are wide.

[Verse]

N.C. (E)
Today's Tom Sawyer,
N.C. (E)
He gets high on you,
N.C. (E)
And the space he invades
N.C. (E)
He gets by on you.

          But change is.

Exit the warrior,
N.C. (E)
Today's Tom Sawyer,

He gets right on to the friction of the day.
